Bluetooth Travel Mouse Mini Nano

I first got one of these for my laptop at work when I started having an entrapped ulnar nerve and wanted a more ergonomic workstation. At first, I tried a Microsoft bluetooth mouse which cost more and would constantly disconnect and require setting up so I did a little research and got the M310. One reason I wanted bluetooth was because the last time I bought a wireless mouse/keyboard (also from Logitech), the receiver was huge and had to be hidden. It also had very low range. To my surprise, the nano receiver with the new M310 is really small - nano if you will, but has much more range than the old style wireless mice. Just for giggles, I was trying it across the room and it still worked. I just leave the nano receiver in the USB port of my laptop all the time and it still fits in my bag. While I was going through painful cortisone injections which did little to help my gimp wrist, I was also happy to use this mouse on either left or right hand as it works both ways (giggity). It's really an elegant design. It's also very light, uses only one AA battery, and battery life is about a year. I liked it so much that now that my wrist is better due to stretching exercises I found on youtube from doctors (which may or may not be legit), I got one for my desktop workstation too which up till then had a wired mouse. It's time to evolve. I'm curious whether the receiver/mouse pairings can be updated in case one or the other is lost.

I have a 2019 Mac Mini that always had weak bluetooth reception for my mouse & keyboard. I bought is as "refurbished" and this is probably why someone returned it in the first place. Anyway, to get to the point, I ordered 4 solutions from Amazon and this Mini USB adaptor was the only device that fixed my problem. I'm using that same keyboard & mouse to type this review. Even though there wer no instructions on the device, I did plug it in, turn off the Bluetooth reception in the Mac Settings, used a wired mouse to turn Bluetooth back on again and it has worked perfectly for the past 3 weeks. My frustration has ended!!! Thanks StarTech!

Good Bluetooth mouse for use with laptop.

In spite of its shortcomings, the Magic Mouse is still the best Bluetooth mouse for the Mac.

This does say mini travel mouse and it is mini. It isn't so small as to be unusable just takes a little getting used to. The retractable cord is nice for a travel mouse. The cord is very flat and thin. Very responsive, buttons are comfy and roller works well.

Works very well, I am not big fan of Bluetooth mouse

I didn't like the Apple bluetooth mouse so I bought this one and it works just fine.

I originally plugged the USB nano receiver into the left side of my 3 year old 17 inch Macbook Pro. I use a 30 inch screen as the main viewer with the macbook to my left on a very large table (used as a megadesk) with another computer and printer ect. to my right. This positioning did not work well as the receiver was about 40 inches away from the mouse and facing away from it as well. This made for spotty response that was very frustrating. I then tried plugging the nano receiver into the right side of my mac (corded) keyboard. (It has a usb jack on each side underneath.) Now the receiver works perfectly as it is only 4 inches away from the mouse and pointed at it. I am sure that if I placed my laptop on the other side of my monitor it would have worked just as well. As a side note, my Gal uses this same mouse (with a dell laptop) at work. It is placed under her desk and it works great. She was surprised that I had any issue with placement. Maybe I have more interference or the macbook shields the wireless connection more than the dell. I do recommend this mouse without reservation but wanted to post this in case you might be needing to use it in a similar setup. By the way, I love that you can store the nano receiver inside the battery compartment of the mouse for travel! Most people will be fine with just leaving it plugged in as it is so small, but it was a very thoughtful touch to keep you from losing it.

Attach it to handle so I mount my Ninja V with mini arm to my Manfrotto MVG300XM gimbal, also mount Nano Nucleus II, works perfect

Mouse works very well with my 15 Macbook Pro. Linked via bluetooth without any problems.
